FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Can I make pear juice concentrate at home?▾
Yes, you can make a version of pear juice concentrate at home by simmering fresh pear juice over low heat. This process slowly evaporates the water, intensifying the natural sugars and flavor into a thicker liquid.
Does concentrating pear juice remove its nutrients?▾
The concentration process can lead to some loss of heat-sensitive nutrients, like Vitamin C. However, many other compounds, including natural sugars, minerals, and some antioxidants, remain concentrated in the final product.
How is this different from fresh pear juice?▾
Fresh pear juice contains the full water content of the fruit, offering a lighter taste and texture. Concentrate has most of its water removed, making it significantly sweeter, more viscous, and suitable for diluting or use as a sweetener.
